Some Home Updates

Fair Warning- I wrote this post in January and forgot to hit publish, so I hope you enjoy it today! 

I love starting over with a clean slate after Christmas. Our house is full of fun decorations from September through December, and once I'm able to take it all down, I enjoy a fresh, clean home. I always get the urge to re-arrange and change some things up, but honestly, I don't want to go and spend a ton of money. I may pick up a few new things, but I really just enjoy shopping from my own house, and making changes that can make a big impact. 

Our entry way had a ton of farmhouse decor signs, and I was ready for it to all go. 

I found two prints at Target that I was considering, and then I remembered that I had white frames just sitting in our closet. 

I hung one, just to get the feel of it and decide if I like it, but now I think i'm going to go back and add one more. I did add a new basket on the entry table to hold Gabby's leash and other odds/ends. 

I kept our dining space simple. I purchased this blue tablecloth last Spring and I still love it.

 I added a wood tray, some little bowls, a vase of eucalyptus stems, a small platter, salt/pepper shakes, and that's it. 

I purchased this mirror last September and I absolutely love it. 

I kept the sideboard simple. A lamp, a serving board, plants, a diffuser, and a family picture. 

I added some dog treats- but made it cute :) 

My goal is to keep the living room bright and simple. 

I had a big orange throw, but I folded that up and put it under the coffee table, and the brought in a white blanket on the sofa. 

Our home has blue and grey accents throughout- throw pillows, on the rug.... the dining table...

The decorations are in the same color scheme, but they're all just fun pieces I've found throughout the years. The little wooden carved house is one of my favorites. 

Gabby is loving the sofa. 

In the kitchen, I added a new dish towel. We received the darker cutting board from the Alamo Bowl, and I love it layered with my other cutting board, plus it brings out the darker brown accents fromt he dish towel 

I picked up a new duvet cover from Ikea, and bought a barefoot dreams blanket with some Christmas cash.
